Humanoid Camera Rotation Issue

[tough marten]

So basically

Thats all I have right now and

CameraController.cs

Whenever you have time check all these screenshots and the camera controller script I sent because I am leaving right now and I will be back tomorrow to see and continue on.

i think you could have the camera follow the head with a relative offset position and rotate as much as you rotate the spine,

right now, it looks like this because the spine rotates everything after it in the hierarchy, but the camera is just rotating around its axis, so the gun overall rotates and changes position(because it is at a different local position relative to the spine bone), while camera is just rotating.

So, I cant really understand how to do it bro. I mean check how it behaves right now

It is ok but actually my weapon and the arms of the character they should move with the camera in order to make it look and feel smooth

[hasty roost]

actually you get the character to look around and camera is supposed to adapt , not the opposite

maybe take a look at animation rigging package

[tough marten]

what do you recommend to do btw, do I really have to continue with this or just have horizontal rotation and thats fine do I really have to fix this advanced issue because its for a college project

we have to create AI basically not advanced FPS body

[hasty roost]

if you don't need full body fps, you just want fps view , then you can just have arms with the weapon, and the camera be the parent of the arms and weapon

so rotating the camera will rotate the arms and weapon altogether

its much simpler

if you don't need full body for the player

[tough marten]

the problem is I already have walk animations and all these stuff

I have created all these stuff with FSM

[hasty roost]

uh, if you don;t need full body

you probably don't need animations (most of them)

movement effect on the weapon can be done through script

[tough marten]

yes I know probably I am gfoing to keep only torso and weapon I am going to remove head, legs and animation clips

right?

or basically I can keep them but I can just remove the animation clips and clamp the values afterwards so that player wont be able to see character full body

right?

[tough marten]

What do you really recommend me to do because I have deadlines in 2 months I have to submit my projects and I dont want to waste my time?

I have to create steering behaviours, behavior trees, fsm, goap for AI

and you know I dont have to waste my time on the Humanoid thing

[hasty roost]

as i said, if you don't need full body, just have arms and a weapon

thats what most fps games do anyways

so you would have your camera as the parent of the weapon and arms

camera rotates only
